BRASILIA, Brazil, November 12 (UNHCR) – A highlight of the Brasilia Declaration includes the unrestricted respect countries have for the principle of non-refoulement (non-forced return), including non-rejection at borders and non-penalization of illegal entry.

The countries that adopted the Brasilia Declaration are Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela. The United States and Canada participated as observers in the Brasilia international meeting.
Reuters AlertNet - Latin America nations pledge more for protection of the displaced and stateless


Translation: We reserve the right to send our discards to the USA, and fully expect taxpayers to assume responsibility for our impoverished masses. Our citizens have a God-given right to live in the U.S. and pursue the American Dream; and unfair laws and immigration status should not impede this process. Nor should our citizens be burdened by the fear of deportation, or the separation of families. As the most powerful country in North America, it is incumbent on the U.S. to provide opportunities, benefits, and services for ALL. No human is illegal.

It’s interesting that the estimated number of the so-called displaced and stateless in ALL of North America is 12 million. Does that number ring a bell?

The refugee agency will be making a big push to persuade more countries to accede to the conventions and to reduce the number of stateless people, estimated to be some 12 million.

How about we send the illegals back home to these countries, then they won't be homeless and displaced any longer. I can see their own governments are eager to welcome them home with big open arms.
